I have been having bizarre FPS drops since a few weeks ago. I've been playing the game Warframe for over a year now, and never had this problem before. When i load up a mission, i usually get above 90-100 frames, and i do get those frames still. But every other minute or so, the fps will drop like 50-60 frames when in a mission. The frames go back to 100+ after like 1-2min. i have screenshots of me in the main ship/main menu where you're supposed to get a lot of frames since it isn't loading much, and it is playing at 314 fps and suddenly drops to 174. In game that means i go from 100+ to unplayable frames. The frames do come back eventually, but i dont know why the are dropping. I haven't OC'd and i have tried things like turning off Cool n' quiet, but nothing has worked. These drops happen regardless of my settings as well. I could be playing on everything at its lowest, getting insane FPS, but then it still drops anyway. I'll put my specs below. Thank you for your time.

Everything says i should uninstall my old drivers, but when i go to control panel, there isn't any " NVIDIA Windows Display Drivers" on the list. just 3d vision controller drivers and audio drivers.
